Phone compatibility on bluetooth

when ppl say their phone is fully compatible does that mean that the idrive will also show text messages up on screen too?!?

No, it means that it will connect, transfer and show phonebook in the screen and receive and send calls reliably every time it pairs with the car.

Showing text messages in the screen seems not to be part of the 3 Series iDrive implementation, although it does exist in the 7 Series at least (SMS envelope icon in the screen is shown in several BMW promotional photos). However, this feature is mainly dependent on the Bluetooth profile present in your phone, so even in the 7 Series it is your phone the primarily responsible of tranferring the data to the screen.

what about audio?

My phone has an MP3 Player, is there a way to play music from the phone through blue tooth?
